Imagination in Dialogue – Workshop with Professor Martha Nussbaum

The workshop brings together philosophers, artists, social scientists, psychologists, cognitive scientists, consults and psychotherapists, interested in studying the role of imagination in human communality. More specifically the aim is to discuss the possibilities of dialogical encounters and their dependency on our capacities of imagination, central to all human cooperation and culture — educational, political and scientific.

The workshop draws inspiration and information from Professor Nussbaum’s philosophy, most importantly from her works Poetic Justice: The Literary Imagination and Public Life, Political Emotions: Why Love Matters for Justice and Not for Profit, and it aims at establishing a new form of scholarly exchange between philosophy, visual arts, and the human sciences.

The workshop is organized together with the University of Jyväskylä.
